Altar, created by James Earls and Ben Levinas, explores the interaction between users and their objects, transcending mere utility through meditative engagement. Standing 70 centimeters tall, this vessel features a bell that emits tones over 10.5 minutes, creating an inviting atmosphere that encourages reflection. Its design balances modernity and tradition, remaining neutral while honoring contemplative practices. Unlike many digital experiences, Altar is focused on simplicity, inviting users to engage with their surroundings without distractions, thus providing a sanctuary amidst constant technological stimulation.
Altar's design transcends functionality by transforming objects into active participants in daily rituals, encouraging moments of reflection and pause amid a digitally engaged world.
The bell within Altar produces tones that extend over time, seeking to draw the user into a space of inattention, free from the pressures of focus.
